What browser are you using to manage the router?
Typically I use Safari 11 on an iMac (macOS 10.13.5), or Chrome 63.x (same iMac). I also use the iOS app, too (poorly designed app in my opinion - dissapointed with NETGEAR here).
Where did you block your phone? Under Access Controls?
I blocked it from the iOS app under the "Device List" section (a simple on/off GUI slider toggle)
